To Quarto, Maj. Striker, and Gliderboy: Good replies from you guys. Good, valid points. In hindsight, perhaps you're right...I'm being perhaps unduly harsh on the parenting side of the argument here. Maybe the kid was indeed the one pushing to go on the ride rather than the parent. The...

I threw the idea out there to comment on something Happy Camper had said. Am I saying there should be an age requirement? Absolutely not. That was Happy Camper's idea, and so I was running with it and saying why I thought it wouldn't work (mind you, that's not to even say it wouldn't...it's...

I have to say that I'm with Jesus on this one to some extent (heh...just sounds funny saying that). :) Yeah, Disney could put in an age requirement for such a ride...let's say 5 years minimum. What are they going to do? Stop every kid getting on the ride and ask them for their driver's...

Good commentary and discussion, guys. Yeah, the whole Padme dying scene is played as the whole "she lost the will to live" type of thing...yet, I'm still not sure I buy that necessarily. I never got the feeling in Episodes 2 & 3 that she cared as much for Anakin as he supposedly did for...

DOH! :) Ok...and PC gamers...unite! ;) Probably getting an XBox 360 myself, but I'm reluctant...what with those PowerPC chips it has. :eek: *grabs Bill Gates by his big head* What were you thinking, Billy?! :rolleyes: Hrmmm...I just took the time to look at Elder Scrolls IV...

Hey, all the consoles are great...otherwise, one or all wouldn't sell at all. :) Back on topic...other games coming out that will be cool (I think) on consoles (focusing on XBox, though some might be multi-platform...dunno): X-Men Legends II, Gauntlet Seven Sorrows (maybe), Need For Speed...

To Edfilho: Thanks for clarifying...yeah, I figured your sarcastic response was just meant as good humor. While I agree with most of what you're saying, I still just feel that George Lucas could've done a better job tying things together and writing a script that was more believable. As...

Good commentary, Mace...you made a very valid point. Still, the whole former friends fighting each other to the verge of death...I would think that should be a pretty big fight emotionally. It sure lasted a lot longer than the battle between Luke and Vader, and was infinitely more...

Wowie...gotta always love a console debate. ;) I have nothing against the Gamecube myself; just prefer the XBox, that's all. Nintendo has a reputation for sticking with the same characters it's had for God knows how many years, and I'm all for that (why else would I hang around a Wing...

HA, Ed...funny stuff; love the sarcasm. :) No, you're right...the movies are meant to be more fun than anything. And you're right...you're not going to find something terribly cerebral or philosophically & artistically deep in something like Star Wars (not withstanding the whole Jedi/Sith...

Heya, TIRex. Good question there. Really, I can only argue it as a matter of opinion. When you take the fact that Wookies are generally considered the honor-bound life-debt pledging members of the Star Wars Universe, and consider the fact that Yoda was sent as the general from the Jedi...

First thing's first...Starkey, I'm still laughing myself silly over your SW scenes that never happened...very funny stuff! So, thanks for that. :D I thought I'd give my impression on things: First off, a summary for those who don't feel like reading any lengthy discertation - I liked...

Wing Commander 2 (the Deluxe CD version with speech) on the family 386-whatever...I remember it well because I had to copy files from the CD onto the hard drive, then disable the CD drive to free up enough memory so I could play it with sound. But in the end, DEFINITELY worth all the headache...

I don't think there's necessarily any moral to the story here...I mean, there are reasons to go either way in the argument for fairly good reasons...that's why it's such a deep conversation, in my opinion. :) Of course, I naturally have my own opinion that I think is right (otherwise, why have...

Nah, the WW2 comparisons are good, Edfilho. It's just that in Prophecy, you have a choice of siding with Hawk and destroying Kilrathi military units, not Kilrathi passenger liners. So saying that destroying them would be like our planes shooting down Japanese airliners following WW2 is a bit...

Hmmmm....the cap ship question. If you're doing the right thing, but a bunch of innocent people following orders get in your way, what should you do? Wow...I guess I could see the moral dilemma there. Ideally, killing innocent people should be avoided at all costs. But the Lexington is...

Intriguing discussion... I noticed this discussion and thought it was an interesting one worth talking about... My take on it would probably be most like Striker's...but again, this is a matter of personal preference. Even within the storylines of Wing Commander, you get the feeling that...

I have to agree with what most people have said here. The one thing in Doom 3's favor was the fact that there was a lot of suspense-building, but it did get terribly repetitive. The whole allure of the game was fighting enemies straight from Hell in dimly lit areas all by yourself on some...

Good Cats, Bad Cats :) I'm undecided personally. When you take entire species like humanity or the Kilrathi...I think it comes down to having a few good people, a few bad people, and a bunch of people in-between. Therefore, I kind of envision there being a Melek for every Thrakhath. I kind...

Hmmm... First off, my compliments on the model, Chernikov. There's a few of you people out there in the WC Community that are pretty talented - I'm a bit jealous! :) I have to agree with the rest of the people responding, though...it doesn't look Kilrathi, unfortunately (I know that's the...
